Our values

Rio Tinto's four core values guide everything we do - from our treatment of our colleagues and customers to our commitment to smart and sustainable development.
Accountability: We depend on innovation, so we do everything we can to empower our people to act decisively - and to reward them for their initiative.
Teamwork: We believe that working together, in an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect, is the engine that drives our business forward.
Integrity: We foster a culture of honesty and fairness - to our colleagues, customers, suppliers and the communities in which we operate.
Respect: At Rio Tinto we look out for the health, safety and wellbeing of our team-mates, and aim to recognise each other's contribution to the success of the enterprise
